Jiffydosc64bin Hot 'link' [FAST]

A dangerous "bricked" C64 is a risk with bad ROMs. Before burning, run a checksum utility (like md5sum or ROMident ).

If your EPROM is larger than the file (e.g., burning an 8KB JiffyDOS image to a 16KB 27C128), you should double the image: copy /b jiffydos.bin + jiffydos.bin doubled.bin . 2. Implementation Methods jiffydosc64bin hot

may refer to:

Locate the original Kernal ROM (usually a 24-pin or 28-pin chip labeled "901227"). Swap the Chip: Remove the old ROM and insert the burned JiffyDOS EPROM. Drive ROM: A dangerous "bricked" C64 is a risk with bad ROMs

But "hot" also carries a metaphorical weight within the cracker and demoscene communities. A "hot" piece of software was new, exclusive, and desirable. A "hot" code routine was one that pushed the boundaries of what the hardware was thought capable of. There is an irony in the phrase "jiffydosc64bin hot": it juxtaposes the digital perfection of the binary copy with the analog failure mode of the overheating machine. It suggests that in our rush to preserve the code (the jiffy, the bin), we are often fighting a losing battle against the entropy of the hardware (the heat).
